Quake 4 rant

[delerium10101]

id didn\'t actually make Quake 4, if that\'s any consolation. They just let Ravensoft use the Doom 3 engine and Quake name. Kinda like Hexen 2 and Heretic 2.

Personally, I don\'t like id though. But that\'s only because I\'ve seen their source code. Torque scared me less. This is the engine that has comments saying that \"Oh, hey, this bug should be fixed before T2 goes gold\". Oooh, and // DMMFIX. You can never underestimate the level of fear that comment can strike into a man\'s heart. It usuall procedes such comments as // THIS DOES NOT WORK ON NVIDIA CARDS!!!!!! repeated four times, or // Don\'t change this without talking to Dave Moore. Any engine that can scare me more than those comments can is an engine worth hiding from.
